Law of Attraction and Hayfever

Seth Early Sessions, Vol 7, Session 281

The Law of Attraction

Now.  Ruburt sent a message and it was received.  I am referring to the visit of your friend today.

The conscious mind had nothing to do with this.  He strongly wished for the friend’s presence.  The wish became reality.  You must understand the rules that apply.  For they apply whether or not you understand them, and whether or not the wish is one that you really want fulfilled.

Take for example this subconscious feeling:  “I want to be comforted.  If I were sick someone would feel sorry for me and comfort me then.”  Such a wish is very seldom on a conscious level, but it is often emotionally charged, and it brings forth immediate results because of the charge it carries.  Whenever you catch yourselves in moods of self-pity, then you are courting such results.

There is no way out of this, you see.  You simply must realize that self-pity, in your terms, is highly destructive.  Any charged emotional feeling will almost immediately be made actual.  Now this gives you an advantage, you see, if you understand the principles.  When you strongly desire to sell your paintings, my friend, you will do so.

If you passionately desire that others possess them, and benefit from them then you shall sell them, and because of your desire you will take those necessary measures.  But regardless of these measures, the paintings will sell.

When you passionately desire to withhold them, when you fear that you will lose a part of yourself by relinquishing them, then this will be what you broadcast to others, and this is the data upon which they will act.

The pendulum is an excellent method of discovering your subconscious feelings, and indeed of changing them.  As you both suppose, incidentally, the music you played this evening was highly beneficial from several standpoints. (Yma Sumac)  Any connection with past periods of productivity or joy have immediate reference to the present.  As negative suggestions play their part, so do positive suggestions, and both in terms of symbols.

These positive symbols can be used quite deliberately.  They should be utilized for your own benefit.  You do this often without realizing that you do so, but a conscious knowledge will help you.

…  Now such associations have an electrical reality, you see, built within your system.  Realization of these causes creates an opposing force that can neutralize the original.

Hay Fever

…  The words – “Father, I refuse to accept your hay fever for myself; though I once took it, I now throw it free from us both” – these words will help.

They will neutralize the original suggestions.  Such patterns, for this is what they are, throw loose and away, break up.  The energy that gave them vitality can then be used in new ways.

Now, dear friend (Rob Butts).  This information will help you.

Your father used hay fever as a symptom of helplessness, and as a demand for the attention that he did not get, even then, from your mother.  The pattern was set earlier in his childhood.  He discarded the symptoms because they did not get him what he wanted.  You mother could not be bothered.

She did not comfort him as his mother had.  You picked up the condition when he realized that it no longer served him.  At that time you accepted it, however, along with your conception of what it was to be a male.  If you had a son and did not know what you know, you would automatically so transfer it.

Now.  You realize that virility is hardly synonymous with a runny nose.  You realize your masculinity.  You are too aware now to allow yourself too many privileges in exchange for your symptoms, and you can therefore afford to relinquish them.

You are not helping your father, for the symptoms will not revert to him.  Your system will simply reorganize the energy pattern.  There was another element.  Your mother treated you as hers exclusively.  You also adopted the symptoms as a protective measure against her.  You said in effect, “I am my father’s son, down to some of his defects.”

When you realize this, again, you will find the symptoms hardly necessary.  Your mother basically did not share your father’s love of the out-of-doors, and you played both ends against the middle.  For the symptoms also allowed you to stay indoors with her on many occasions.

All of this information will be immeasurably helpful to you.  Your father’s hay fever was a defense also against farm work, you see.

There was an afternoon … I am not clear here … You were given cod liver oil.  The symptoms began that day.  You should not eat salads at your parent’s home, that are mixed with oil, during the season.

Hay fever was for your father also a defense against the world, for it allowed him some isolation.  You can have the necessary privacy without using this symptom to get it.

…  Yoga breathing will be of therapeutic value when you need it, but the knowledge gained in this evening’s session should go a long way toward minimizing the symptoms.  You should avoid the color red in decorations during the season.  You should take steps to realize the connection with your mother and red, so that our friend can use his red curtains at Christmas with impunity.
